This was good but that’s really all I can say about it. I liked the concept and the tropes going into the book and was interested in Talia’s story. I really liked her as a main character and enjoyed her arc and her growth and her depth. I also liked the setting because being in a small town with the whole family is so fun. I liked foster but I definitely thought he was lacking something. He was so down bad for Talia but the reasoning for that was never explained which just made it feel kind of superficial. I wanted more about their past as a couple not just what happened the years they were apart and I wanted to see more growth from some of the other relationships in the story. This also felt like it had a lot of side stories and loose ends that just didn’t contribute a ton to the overall plot so those were kind of unnecessary. But overall this was a super quick read with likeable characters so not bad at all.
